Basketball, Varsity Boys - Clinton 53, Newberry 51. C scorer: JD Payne 14, Jahleed Cook 12. Coach Eddie Romines said, “Newberry has a good team, but we found a way to get a big road win tonight. We rebounded much better tonight than the first time we played them. Our guards did a pretty good job of handling Newberry’s press. We had several guys come off the bench and contribute to the win.”

Clinton 59, Broome 48. C scorer: JD Payne 18.

Romines said, “We struggled at times offensively in the first half, but we played much better offensively in the second half. Also, we played really good defense in the second, third and fourth quarters. It was a great win for us. I’m very proud of this team. I’m so proud of my assistant coaches, Josh Bridges and Dontavious Glenn. They did an excellent job tonight, also. It was a ‘team’ win tonight!”
